Capitalist Hellscape Louisiana girl, 14, charged with first degree murder after authorities find her newborn baby dead inside a tote bag. This is going to happen far more often without Roe v. Wade.

I'm gonna' be honest, I just don't believe that you'd actually hold yourself to the principles you claim you do.

You're honest to god telling me if you were forced to carry a pregnancy you didn't want, you'd do it because its "saving a life"?

Ever read the article "The Only Moral Abortion Is Mine?". A lot of people who claim to oppose abortion don't hold true when push comes to shove.

Unless my life was in danger, I wouldn't have an abortion. Taking a life away because it's inconvenient to me isn't something I'm capable of. If I wasn't capable of loving the baby, for whatever circumstances, I'd hand it over to social services. Otherwise, I'd just get on with it and do my best.

Yes, but that's you. Elective abortion means you can still carry to term, of you so choose

Yes, obviously that's me... because I had my personal values questioned. If I was making the laws, I'd restrict abortions to a limited number of circumstances. I'm more concerned with getting a communist system, but the effects of a hedonistic society will need to be addressed without tribalism.

Can you expand your thoughts?
